Tensions were at an all-time high during the latest episode of The Apprentice<\/a> as the remaining candidates were tasked with a floristry challenge.<\/p>\n

After being divided into two teams, BBC<\/a> viewers saw the groups tasked with selling flowers to the public, along with creating floral installations for corporate clients.<\/p>\n

However, things for one team didn’t run too smoothly as project manager Vanessa left one of her teammates stressed when creating their installation,<\/a> which their corporate client wasn’t pleased with.<\/p>\n

When it came down to finding out which team had won the task in the boardroom, one team had made a substantial profit compared to the other team.<\/p>\n

Tim Campbell shared that Team Alpha, which was run by Vanessa, had spent a total of \u00a31,436.25 and sold \u00a32,000.84, giving them a total profit of \u00a3564.59.<\/p>\n

However, Team Eclipse, which was run by Rothna, had spent \u00a3620.50 and sold \u00a32,792.50, giving them a total profit of \u00a32,172.<\/p>\n

Vanessa decided to bring back Lawrence and Pascha into the room with her, all at risk of being fired.<\/p>\n

Although when it came down to hearing everyone’s thoughts, it was clear a decision had been made.<\/p>\n

When it came to giving his decision, Lord Sugar explained: “Vanessa,I don’t think you led this team very well at all.<\/p>\n

“In fact, I think far too much money was spent on flowers and also the manufacturing of the bouquets was a joke, a complete and utter joke. On that basis, Vanessa, you’re fired.”<\/p>\n

As the candidate thanked Lord Sugar, she stood up and wished her two teammates luck in the rest of the competition.<\/p>\n

When they had all left the room, Tim told Lord Sugar he had made the right decision as he replied: “There was only one decision you could make.”<\/p>\n

During her exit speech, she said: “I took a big risk and put myself for something I’ve never done before and I’m not regretful about that. I think I’m an amazing person and I’ll definitely go far in life.”<\/p>\n

In a separate interview with the BBC, Vanessa confessed that she didn’t think it was her time to go.<\/p>\n

She commented: “I was gutted. Absolutely gutted. I don’t believe it was my time to go. I kind of just feel like my fate was already decided from when I put myself up because nobody else wanted the job, and we know from Apprentice history that the PM will always get the blame should anything go wrong.<\/p>\n

“So, I was really gutted that my risk of putting myself up for a task, that I knew nothing about, wasn’t seen as me being a risk taker, or willing to do whatever it took to get the result. It was taken as though I decided to do something I knew nothing about.<\/p>\n
